Johnson & Bell’s Investigations group offers attorneys with extensive experience investigating civil, criminal, and compliance matters involving individuals, companies, and institutions.
Our attorneys have investigative experience working with the United States Department of Justice, Cook County (Illinois) State’s Attorney’s Office, Chicago Police Department, LaPorte County (Indiana) Prosecutor's Office, Cook County (Illinois) Sheriff’s Office, Indiana Department of Child Services, and the Illinois Attorney General’s Office. With these agencies our attorneys conducted numerous investigations in collaboration with prosecutors, law enforcement, and protective organizations.
We conduct internal and independent investigations of varying size and scope, depending on the needs of each client, examining and reviewing sensitive subject matters with an unbiased eye. Smaller inquiries may involve limited document and electronic review, along with targeted interviews conducted by a small team. Larger investigations can involve extensive document and e-mail analyses, including forensic accounting, and detailed interviews.
Our team can help you quickly and efficiently deal with a whistleblower complaint, a workplace dispute, compliance concerns, a threatened government investigation, or other sensitive matters, providing fact-based, unvarnished assessments to help guide your steps, negotiate a favorable resolution or prepare for an effective defense in court.
